human imperfection

    Who’s Watching

    Though status, faith,
    or class may seem
    to set us far apart,
    the common thread of error
    marks us,
    star by star.
    Each falters in a fashion
    uniquely their own.
    And this shared imperfection?
    It’s a truth
    we’ve always known.

    It is natural.
    No one’s past
    is a single color.
    No one’s present
    is one-dimensional.
    And no one’s future
    comes without a choice.

    Meaning is learned.
    Reality—chosen.
    A path is formed
    by the vibration
    of consciousness,
    its frequency.

    The story unfolds
    as one of witness—
    probabilities realized.

    The observer
    is observed.
    The observed
    is the observer.
